“In a gentle way, you can shake the world.” – Mahatma Gandhi
Are you ready for a bold and compassionate conversation about leadership in today’s world?
We invite you to join us at 1440 on Nov. 13th for a conversation with Ela Gandhi, granddaughter of Mahatma Gandhi, Jim Wallis of Sojourners, and renowned author and teacher Yogacharya Ellen Grace O’Brian for a discussion about how alliances of all faiths can inspire action, help build community, and cultivate compassion even when times feel their most dark and uncertain. This event will be moderated by Suzanne St. John-Crane, CEO of the American Leadership Forum.
What does it mean to live spiritually amidst the tough questions facing our society today?
What is needed in our global leadership at this very moment?
And what can you do to contribute your unique gifts to the conversation?
We hope you’ll join us for what promises to be an inspiring and thoughtful evening with these thought leaders on the 1440 stage.
